G'day eyepopslikeamosquito,

Thanks for this. I do remember the "Rosetta Code: Long List is Long" thread — in fact, I front-paged it — and I did follow it for some time. There are certainly things of interest. I've packed up my tinkering for now (heading off for a major family "Easter" reunion) but will no doubt get back to it next week.

Your first reference brought Memory::Usage to my attention. I don't recall using that module, or even being aware of it, previously. It could provide common ground for comparing sizes: currently using Devel::Size::total_size() for %hash and Judy::HS::MemUsed() for $judy. It would also get around the MemUsed() bug(s) already discussed.

I came across Judy arrays quite some time ago: I added it to my mental list of things to study further at some future date. Curiously, I came across your third reference a couple of days ago (via some link hopping around PM): this prompted me to move Judy arrays from the mental list to the active list. :-)
